We're teaming up with Peculiar Pig Farm to bring you a taste of Carolina heritage & history right here in Old Fort. Join us for a traditional Pig Pickin' at Watershed on October 23rd and 24th!

What's a Pig Pickin'? It's a beloved Southern tradition, rooted deeply in the Carolinas, in which a whole hog is slow cooked and served communally. More than a meal, a pig pickin' is a gathering, a celebration, and a ritual of hospitality passed down through generations. Best enjoyed with good company and no particular hurry.

Frontcountry got a facelift just in time for the first 3-day weekend of the school year!

Yes, we will be OPEN for Labor Day.

Enjoy bike trails, play in the Catawba River, fuel up with delicious BBQ, and enjoy a pint of cold Butcher Babe Brewing b**r from our onsite brewery.

Bring the kids and have them burn all that youthful energy up on our new and improved kiddie pump track while you enjoy a seat in the shade, and/or bring your own bike (or rent one from our shop) and check out the work we've been putting in on the jump lines and the new trails in the Backcountry (thanks Elevated Trail Design).

As always, Frontcountry amenities are FREE and we have a variety of Backcountry pass options if you're more inclined to aim your bike downhill.

Everyone with their feet on pedals or in the water MUST SIGN A WAIVER. Waivers are good for life, so why don't you go ahead and sign yours now at the LINK IN BIO.
